Not Upin Tracks.

When Charlie Thompson was up
in the mountains a few weeks ago
he came across some grizzley bears
tracks and rushed into camp to tell
the news. Organizing strong
party of hunters among which were
Boston dudes and English noble
men, he lead them over rock and
hill for eighteen miles until the
tracks got fresh and the crowd wild
with excitement. Crawling up on
their hands and knees through the
chapparel they found what had
been making the tracks. It was an
old squaw wearing moecasins and
she was sitting on stump, weav-
ing the wicker basket of her race.

"Murders are becoming of rather

A Canard.

Says a State exchange: Senator
Hearst, with Governor Stevenson
and Delegate Dubois, recently held
a conference at Shoshone, Idaho,
regarding the proposed enlargement
of the boundaries of Idaho, with
reference to Statehood, which Idaho
expects soon to demand. Senator
Stewards move to annex a portion
of Idaho to Nevada has entirely col
lapsed. At the conference it was
suggested that the Idaho line be ex-
tended Northward through Mon
tana so as to take in the counties of
Beaver Head and Missoula.
The above has been going the
rounds for some time. Senator
Hearst however denies positively
that such a conference ever took
place. The opening line "says a
State exchange" stamps it as man.
ufactured out of whole cloth.

Mistaken for a Deer.

Last Monday at Gray Hound
Valley near the headwaters of the
American River, Frank Traganja
shot George William with a rifle
and killed him, installing him at
the time for deer. Traganja did
not see Williams when he fired, but
seeing the bushes moving, shot,
and the ball entered Williams alb
domen causing death in few hours.
Many such accidents occur in Cali
fornia and 1t is time the law called
some one to account for it. The
hunters generally miss a deer when
they see one but manage to kill
the man in the bushes.

A Remarkable Growth.

The many friends of Messrs.
Montgomery, Ward & Co., formerly
at 227 and 229 Wabash Av., Chi
cage, will be glad to know that the
rapid growth of their business has
forced them to remove from Wabash
Ave. to Ill, 112, 113, and ia,
Michigan Ave-, where they have
purchased a magnificent building,
the seven floors of which they occupy
exclusively. These seven floors
are each I00x165 feet, aggregating
nearly 120, 900 square feet (about 8
acres) of floor surface. The new
quarters will enable them to handle
their large business to the better adj
vantage of their thousands of GUS
toners. Fifteen years ago Messrs.
Montgomery, Ward & Co. occupied
but one room and that was only
25x40 feet. The enormous growth
of their business during these fifteen
years can only be explained by the
fact that they sell direct to consum-
ers, supplying all their wants, and
never misrepresent any article. The
success of this house proves the old
saying, that "Honesty is the best
policy" and from this policy they
never deviate. The Fall catalogue
issued by Messrs. Montgomery,
Ward & Co. ought to be in every
family.

ALIEN LAND OWNERS.

The Silver State comments a
follows:
One of the principles of the re
vivified know-nothing party is t.
s.reserve American land for Ameri
can citizens" As the law at present
restricts settlement on the public do.
main with view to acquiring title
to the same to American citizens, Oh
| those who have declared their inten
ton to become such, the declaration
of the American party implies that
that if that party should be in the
ascendency no alien would be permit
ted to own land in the United States.
Congress at it's last session, in COM
pliance with petitions from labor
organizations and others, passed an
act to prohibit aliens from acquir-
ing titles tc lands in Territories, but
several papers IN Idaho and other
Territories say the settlers are OPP
posed to it and will probably pet
ton to have it repealed, as it keeps
capital out of the Territories and re-
tards the development of the min
ing as well rs the agricultural in
terests of the country.
In this State there are large cattle
and mining companies controlled
by aliens. They invest their money
in enterprises in which home capital
could not be induced to engage,
and have developed mines which
gives employment to many people.
Notwithstanding many millionaires
acquired their wealth in Nevada,
it was left to foreign capital to dem
onstrate the practicability of stor-
ing water when it is plentiful in the
Spring for irrigating purposes, and
VI oAoAoiuiAS oaSCoi uou PIdldO,
which, without water, would not
jack rabbit to the acre,
into luxuriant alfalfa fields, which
produce four or five tons to the acre.
The principle enunciated by the
party would reserve that
land in its desert state forever, un-
less some American capitalist mean
while could be prevailed upon to
invest money to reclaim it. If the
party intends to prevent |
great enterprises of this character
from being carried out because for
eigners will have an interest insthe |
and reclaimed or the mines devel-
oped with their money, it must not /,
expect to become in the ascendency

s sadly needed to develop their re-
sources.

A reporter of the Examiner, pre-
sumably Arthur McEwen, has had
the gross temerity to write an article
making light of the judicial dignity
of Judge Field of the U. S. Court at
San Francisco. The idea of any
one INDUCING in pleasantries at the
expense of Judge Field indicate
that the days of revolution and
anarchy are close at hand. Mac
should be at once arrested for con-
tempt and committed to the nearest
Jail until he gets over it. This

BEET SUGAR-MAKING.

Mr.. Spreckels, the "sugar king"
is now on his way home from Europe,
where he has been investigating the
beet sugar industry. He has bought
250, 900 marks worth of machinery
in Prague and Cologne and 20 tons
of beet seed. He is going to estab-
fish factory in California which will
use $50 tons of beets every twenty
four hours and produce about 40 tons
of sugar per day. To a New York
Herald reporter in London Mr..
Spreckels said:
~ am convinced that beet sugar making
with my new machinery will create one
of the greatest industries the United
States ever had. l shall never rest until
| have made the United States the great
est beet sugar producer, manufacturer
and market in the world-yes, above Ger
many or France. 1t is true that at the
present time Germany exports 600, 900
tons of beet sugar annually and consumes
herself another 400, 900 tons.
If it were not for growing sugar beets
the Germany farmers would go to the
wall as certainly as the English farmers
have done. Many practical farmers /
meet in Germany told me that if it were
not for the beet growing they would suf
| fer. All seemed to feel that their countr,
could not compete with the United State,
if we adopted their new machinery"
If the experiment proves successful
and there seems to be no reasol
why it should not-America will 500
be an exporter instead of an import
er of sugar. Beet sugar is made eve
lin Canada, but not very successfully
flor the season is too short. 1t doe
best where there can be constant crop
the year round. 1t has been tried j
this country, notably at Portland
Me-, but the experiment was abar
doned because not enough farmer
would grow the beets. But with q
assured market and fair returns, i
doubt there are regions-and perhal
they are in Vermont as well as
California-where "sugaring" can
carried on, as the Irishman thoug
: he would do it, ''the year round" an
: with encouraging proft.-Rutlar
d Herald.
